Chapter 842 - A New Head of the Company



Chapter 842: A New Head of the Company

It had shrunk by seventy percent, but it was still three times of what they started off with. People could be unreasonable sometimes. They have made tons of money over the years, but they should have expected that money would sometimes be lost as well.

It could not always be smooth sailing in business. Chu Lui was a mortal man and not God. Besides, this was not his fault. Internal documents were lost which gave the others the chance.

Did that negate everything that Chu Lui had done before?

“You’re cousins; of course, you’ll say that.” The shareholder sneered. “We just want our rights, no? No matter the reason, we’ve suffered a loss. That’s the truth.”

That was what the other shareholders thought. However, they could not be blamed. There was no room for scruple in the face of interests.

“You all?” Du Jingtang stood up as he slammed his hand on the table. These people were pushing his cousin to resign.

“Jingtang, sit down,” Chu Lui said plainly. He had not made his position clear since the beginning. He crossed his arms. The atmosphere was tense.

When he put his hand down, he tossed his pen on the table.

He stood up, placing his palms on the table.

“Okay.” Chu Lui curled his lips sarcastically. “I’ll resign.”

“Cousin...”

Du Jingtang wanted to say something, but Chu Lui raised his hand.

“Don’t say anything. I’ve made my decision.” He did not want to be CEO anymore.

Who they wanted as their new CEO was their problem and had nothing to do with him.

Chu Lui packed his things and left with a box in his arms. When he opened the door, he met another man head-on.

“Hello, CEO Chu, we meet again.” After that, he reached out his hand.

Chu Lui hugged his box without saying a word.

“You’re taking over?” It was a definitive statement, not a question.

“Yes.” Min Guocheng smiled as he took back his hand. “It just happens that I have forty-five percent of Chu Enterprise’s shares while CEO Chu you have none. So I’ll have to make do with taking over as CEO. Even though it has its share of problems, they can be solved.”

With that, he walked into the office. “En, CEO Chu’s office is not bad. It’s bright; I like it.” He sat in Chu Lui’s chair as he crossed his legs. “I actually wanted to continue working with CEO Chu, but I don’t think you’ll want to work with someone like me so I won’t keep you. Please make yourself comfortable.”

He motioned towards Chu Lui as he spoke. His eyes were full of mockery and glee. Chu Enterprise was his from now on. He finally got rid of Chu Lui and became the person at the top of the pyramid.

“Brother, what’s going on?” Du Jingtang ran over in disbelief, unable to grasp that the company had just changed hands. “Brother, where are your shares?” He did not understand how something this impossible could have happened.

His cousin held forty-five percent of the shares; he had ten percent. Chu Jiang held ten together. The other shareholders held a total of thirty over percent. Even if Min Guocheng bought out all the other shareholders, there was no way he would be the CEO of the Chu Enterprise.

Their shares were supposed to add up to sixty-five percent.

Chu Lui placed his things in the car, turned, and patted Du Jingtang on his shoulder. “This is the end of it. Don’t look into it, and don’t go after it.”

“But Brother...”

Du Jingtang wanted to know the reason, but Chu Lui refused to answer.

Chu Lui opened the car down. He did not seem unaffected by the company’s change of hands. He drove to the buns stall and bought the buns after a long queue.

He knew that Xia Ruoxin really liked the buns from this place. It was good that he was no longer CEO. It meant that he had more time for her. He had not had much time for himself for the companies these few years. He felt relaxed after setting the burden down.

When he returned home and opened the door, the house was empty.

“Ruoxin.” He called out.

There was no answer.

Bang! He dropped the buns on the floor. He had a bad feeling, and something seemed to be missing from inside his heart. It seemed to be aching.

He walked into the bedroom. It was empty.

She must have gone out.

Yeah, she probably went out. When he walked to the wardrobe and opened it, the closet that previously had been filled with women’s clothes was almost empty.

She left... again. This time, she left determinedly again, without leaving a note.

Thunder rumbled as it began to rain, and raindrops pelted on the glass. The buns on the ground turned cold and began to harden. It would probably turn moldy after a few days.

Song Wan pressed the bell confusedly. It had been a few days, and Chu Lui had not been home. Did he go out? It can’t be; the car was still sitting outside.

She wiped her tears. The company was gone, and the house was frozen. The company refused to pay the bank’s penalties so the Chu family’s assets were still frozen. Only the house under Chu Jiang was left; before it was under the Du family and not the Chu family.

“Ah Lui.” She knocked on the door.

After half a day of knocking, the door was still closed.

Bang! Bang! Bang! She knocked heavily on the door. She could not get through on the phone, and she could not locate him. This was the only place that she had not been to. Where could her son be, if not here?

“Ah Lui, are you there?” She called out again without an answer. She had no choice but to get a locksmith to break the lock. When the door was open, there was the strong smell of alcohol; and it was all dark. All the curtains were drawn, and the house was filled with all sorts of strange odors. Some things were even moldy. She turned on the lights. She took a step forward but seemed to have stepped on something. She was shocked.
